Ingredients

2 cups Mushrooms ( sliced ) 1 1/3 cups Morning Star Meal Starter Crumbles1/2 medium Sweet red raw pepperAbout 20 diced Hot Pepper rings2.50 cups Pellicano's Marinara sauce (200 cal) 4 oz. Thai Rice Noodles2 Tbsp Grated Parm cheese ( topping )1 t each Oregano and Basil1 Tbsp Crushed red peppers Cooking spray ( any brand )

Directions

I usually make this for just two people to split but it could easily feed 3 or 4.

The longest part of this recipe is soaking the noodles

The first step is to soak your Thai noodles in cold water for about 20-30 minutes ( longer then that and they become too mushy)

While the noodles are draining

Pick a pot that will ultimately hold the sauce and the noodles ,Heat and spray with cooking spray
Add Red Peppers and hot pepper rings, saute about 3-4 minutes
Add Morning Star Meal Starter Crumbles, Crushed red pepper, Italian spices and cook for another 5 minutes
Add Marinara sauce and simmer until hot

Once Thai noodles are finished soaking, drain and then add to Spicy sauce.
Once the noodles are warm, It's done, Top with Parm cheese
Now thats easy!!

italian vinaigrette salad dressing

There's this salad at Buca Di Beppo and they use a dressing similar to this on their Apple Gorgonzola Salad. It's not right according to my boyfriend who works there, but i love it anyway. It's always better after a few days in the fridge. (ps, this isn't my recipe, i found in on the internet look for meemoskitchen on google)Submitted by: MMPIXIE

Crispy Green Beans with Pesto

The trick to learning to like vegetables you hate is to disguise their appearance and flavor. Think about what it is you dislike about that particular vegetable.
I asked Fred why he's anti-green beans. It turns out that he remembers the long, mushy canned beans from childhood.
Step 1: Chop the beans into 1-inch pieces.
Step 2: Change texture. Sauté them in a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper on high heat until they're crispy on the outside and still slightly firm.
Step 3: Change the flavor: Add pesto (with homemade lemony basil from the co-op) and an extra bit of parmesan cheese!
Results: "Is this pasta?" Fred asks as I hand him a plate of beans. Submitted by: STEPFANIER
